—My Love
Happy Valentines Day from the Poison Control Center.. Here is a rough cut of our song, MY LOVE from the Collage of Impressions sessions!
I always loved this song, closest we ever got to CROSBY STILLS NASH AND YOUNG!
Love is the answer y'all :)
The Poison Control Center’s tune Born on Date, is featured in a Forever 21 online commercial.
Nothing goes with a crazy hair dye job, and trendy cloths like a Devin Frank guitar solo! No to be serious we a stoked to be on this Forever 21 commercial cause 3/5 of the band are closer to 40 then we are 21 so, you get my drift!
Devin and Patrick (Gloom Balloon) will both be playing sets opening for Ken Stringfellow, Friday the 8th of February at the Vaudeville Mews in Des Moines.. Jordan Mayland will also be rocking.. doors at 7:30.. Come hang out..
Also Patrick will be playing at noon at the Space for Ames B-day bash with 55 bands in 15 hours!
